It looks a bit small and slow. If I drove to Perth, from here, it'd be time to pay the rego again when I got there .

The style is similar to one of the ones I used to travel to school in, around 1950, but it was a Ford. I vividly remember how quiet the engine (V8) was, compared to the gear noise once under way.

Even better, it's already painted blue!

G'Day Ian!!! Yes, you have been talking about buying a bus to convert for sometime now. Bus looks in reasonable condition from what I can see on the piccies. Welcome to the world of bus drivers, are you going to keep to a timetable

Mere bus driver? They, like all workers perform an important role in the community, the only exception to that is traffic controllers, they're a waste of shirt space.
